Chicago Rapper Tavares Taylor, better known as Lil Reese, rose to fame as the featuring artist on Chief Keef's single "Don't Like." Which seemingly birthed the drill rap era and shined light on the violence n Chicago's streets. Lil Reese would spill hate filled lyrics wishing death on opps (short for "opposition" or rival gang members), and spewing disrespect towards those not in his gang. His name gained more fire as gang members he would come into conflict with would often end up murdered in the streets. With one of the most known being fellow Chi-Raq rapper and rival gang member, "Lil JoJo." These deaths earned Reese the nick name "The Grim Reaper."
Well 2019 has been a grim year of reaping for rapper. He was caught slipping by rivals and attacked earlier this year. The video not only showed Lil Reese to be very little of a threat with out a gun (and he was yelling to someone to call someone else to get the gun) but he also stained his fear level and clothes by shitting on himself during the scuffle. Giving the impression this might be his first real fight other than the video released a few years ago of Reese fighting his child's mother at a party.
Today, news has unfolded that in the day light hours, Reese was shot at an intersection in Chicago's South Suburb of Country Club Hills. Responding officers said witnesses claimed another man took the injured rapper in a personal vehicle following the shooting. Police contacted local hospitals and found out the victim was shot in the neck, and his identity. Lil Reese has been listed in critical condition and currently no arrests have been made or leads have been released.
